There are no words for it. Finding a good doctor is too much like playing Russian roulette for anyone's peace of mind.
But given the hospital in question - I can't make my mind wrap around the idea that there was no duty doctor who could look at your brother and then consult with the attending, even over the phone to get authorization for treatment. My experience has always been that duty nurses/doctors have always taken note of patient's condition - contacted attending/co-attending for course of treatment if I had any questions, and followed any instructions given.
